Chapter 3: Chapter 3

It has been a week since Belial was reborn in this world. During that time, he has consistently trained his physicality and endurance in extremely intense ways. He lifts stones twice his body weight, runs tirelessly throughout the day, holds his breath underwater for two hours, and engages in various other extreme activities.

Belial also continues to use the Power of Healing while performing these extreme training sessions. As a result, he has already felt significant changes in his body, both externally and internally. His muscles have grown and hardened, his physical endurance is on par with dozens of horses, and his Mana energy is also beginning to develop.

Belial discovered one new aspect about this Mana energy, which is its storage located next to his heart. Although he doesn't know what exactly this "object" is, he named it the "Core" for easier reference.

Although the energy flows throughout his body, it doesn't mean he can absorb Mana as he pleases. If he acts recklessly, his Core could explode, which would be fatal for his heart situated right next to it.

Kurgh~

Currently, Belial is sitting or lying on a tree branch. Suddenly, his stomach makes a hungry noise, indicating that he needs to eat.

"Phew... It's time to hunt," he mutters.

Hunting has become his new habit. Although he wasn't accustomed to hunting in his previous lives, whether on Earth or in Gehenna, in this world, he needs food and his body requires nutrition suitable for his training, not just fruits alone. Therefore, he decided to start hunting on the second day after arriving in this world.

And hunting has been his routine for this past week.

'Power of Blade + Power of Destruction:'

Shing! Shing!

Ouch!

A death cry resonates from a creature resembling a pig but twice as big. This animal has brown fur with thin black stripes, strong horse-like legs, and a prominent mohawk of hair on its nape. Its lower fangs protrude from its mouth.

Belial doesn't know the exact name of this creature, but he often refers to it as a Wild Boar.

Unfortunately, this animal will be Belial's dinner tonight.

"Phew, two days ago I couldn't defeat it, but now it feels like cutting butter."

Swish...

The red sword held by Belial disappears along with a faint energy enveloping his body. Without waiting long, Belial immediately lifts the Wild Boar's body.

The red sword is a result of the Power of Blade ability, while the faint energy surrounding Belial comes from the Power of Destruction ability.

Power of Blade allows its user to create a sword of any desired shape, with the limit depending on the user's energy. Aside from creating a sword, Power of Blade also enhances the user's swordsmanship skills in a short amount of time.

Meanwhile, Power of Destruction strengthens the user's destructive abilities. Like Power of Blade, the limits of this power depend on the user's energy.

Previously, Belial only used one-fifth of both abilities because his energy hadn't fully accumulated during training, preventing him from utilizing their full potential.

However, as the Demon King, Belial could cut and topple trees and mountains around this forest if he used the full power of both abilities.

He was truly strong, incredibly strong when he was still the Demon King of Gluttony.

Bam!

Belial, after arriving at his usual sleeping spot, lays down the large body of the Wild Boar on the ground. The animal's head is already separated, and fresh blood is still gushing from the remaining neck.

"Yosh, time to become a master chef." He jokes to himself.

"Power of Blade."

Whoosh...

Carefully, Belial uses the knife from the Power of Blade to skillfully skin the animal. In just half a minute, he successfully skins the large boar.

After that, he starts cutting the meat into small cubes. Once done, he impales the meat pieces onto the rapier from the Power of Blade and begins conjuring fire using magic.

Yes, magic. Thanks to the Power of Magic, Belial can master all kinds of magic. Although he had to learn magic to master it, as Belial, the Demon King, he already mastered all types of magic in his previous life. Up to now, he still remembers all those types of magic.

"Fire."

Whether he is the only one or someone else in this world can do the same, currently, Belial uses magic to ignite fire without reciting any incantations. He simply says "Fire" while pointing his palm towards the firewood.

Fwooosh...!

The wood ignites with a moderate-sized flame.

Once the fire is ready, Belial rubs a fruit containing acid on the cut meat. The fruit adds flavor to the large boar's meat, as the meat itself tastes bland and unpleasant to his palate.

Sizzle...!

The meat sizzles as the young man places it on the prepared fire.

After a few minutes, the meat is perfectly cooked and ready to be enjoyed.

With delight, Belial takes the cooked meat from the fire. The tantalizing aroma fills the air as he lifts the piece of meat using the knife from the Power of Blade. Its mouthwatering taste makes Belial salivate.

Without hesitation, Belial begins his solo feast. Each bite of the delicious and flavorful meat captivates him even more. The tender texture of the meat, enhanced by the sour fruits, makes this dish extraordinary.

"This is delicious!"

In his mind, he decides to continue using these fruits in the future.

Actually, this is the first time he has used these fruits, and now he knows the benefits of these oddly-shaped fruits.

With each bite, Belial feels strength and energy flowing into his body. The meat provides the necessary nutrition for his well-trained body.

In the silence of the night, Belial enjoys the dish he prepared himself. The meat gives him an irreplaceable satisfaction after a day of training and hunting.

While savoring his meal, Belial can't help but smile. The power and skill of his resurrected Demon King self are reawakening within him.

(A: Haha, just making up stories as I please).

After finishing his meal, a feeling of fullness and satisfaction fills Belial's body. With slow steps, he moves towards his usual spot to spend the night in the middle of the forest.

Belial stretches his body beneath the dense trees and finds a comfortable spot. He feels the natural comfort of the wild nature around him, calming his mind and preparing himself for rest. With no blanket, he relies on the fire to warm his body.

Slowly, the young man closes his eyes and feels exhaustion spreading throughout his body. His thoughts start to fade, and his consciousness crawls towards the dream world.

In the stillness of the night, Belial peacefully drifts into sleep, absorbing energy from the surrounding nature as he slumbers. Each tranquil breath seems to fill the emptiness in his heart.

He feels the comfort in his sleep, calming his body and mind after a full day of intense training that slightly burdened his body.

In the darkness of the night, Belial dozes off, ready to take a short rest before facing another round of extreme training waiting for him in the morning.
